As I mentioned on February 12th, the long-awaited Fluxbox Community Edition of Linux Mint has been released, and I've had the opportunity to install it on my laptop to give it a whirl.
I promised @Kendall — the man who picked up the Linux Mint Fluxbox CE torch and ran with it to keep this project alive — a review, so here goes!
Linux Mint 8 Fluxbox Community Edition is based on Linux Mint 8 Main Edition, the 2.6.31 Linux kernel, and Fluxbox 1.1.1. As a longtime Fluxbox user and a recent enthusiast of Linux Mint, I was pretty excited that there was going to be a Fluxbox Community Edition based on the most recent Mint release, because to me it seemed like the best of both worlds — the streamlined, clean "cohesiveness" I've come to enjoy in Linux Mint, plus the fast, highly customizable Fluxbox that I tend to install on my own anyway, regardless of what default desktop or window manager is included in any distro I'm using.
And while I'm perfectly capable of getting Fluxbox to work on top of Ubuntu and Linux Mint alike, I really wanted to see what Mint would be like when implemented with Fluxbox as its centerpiece, as a distro, and I can say, I haven't been let down.
So, down to brass tacks, as it were, I have Linux Mint 8 Fluxbox CE installed on my five year old Toshiba Satellite A75, which seemed to be an excellent test bed for a distro release designed to be optimized for limited resources.
The main features and apps, screenshots included
I've taken a number of screenshots immediately post-install so I can show readers what things look like before I tweak and customize things to the way I like them. Any of my thumbnails below can be clicked on for the full-size version.
I'm going to go over what the main items are first, and I'll express my thoughts on them and their implementation after.
Anyone reading this review is probably already a Fluxbox user, and as such probably doesn't need an A to Z rundown of the installation process in this release. I'll sum that part up by simply saying that the Linux Mint 8 Fluxbox CE installation process runs just like the default Linux Mint 8 Main Edition install, using the Ubiquity installer with all the same options as Ubuntu and regular Mint.
Once installed, after a reboot, the user is greeted by a lightweight and Mint-themed SLiM login manager.
Once logged in, this is the default desktop:
Same wallpaper and shiki theme from the Linux Mint 8 Main Edition, and I found it to be aesthetically pleasing and quite clean.
Upon login, the user is greeted by a welcome screen familiar to those who have used Linux Mint 8 Main Edition:
The default menu is a very simple, basic Fluxbox menu, with commonly used items at the top — "Home", which launches the default file manager (which I'll get to in a minute), "Web Browser", which launches the default browser, and several other menu options for other basic things — and categorized, dynamic menus below a separator. Under the bottommost of these, the "System" menu, users will find the Fluxbox menu, which Fluxbox users will find familiar and useful for configuring their window manager via Fluxbox's default options.
Astute observers will note the presence of VolWheel in the notification tray, a basic volume control and sound manager, as well as the GNOME NetworkManager Applet.
This release doesn't have GNOME installed, preferring instead a mix of lighter weight, faster applications drawn largely from Xfce and LXDE. As such, here we have Thunar as the default file manager:
For the default terminal, I found that LXTerminal had been selected for this role:
Sylpheed is the default mail client:
We have Pidgin for instant messaging:
OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 is also included:
And Xfce's Mousepad text editor is installed:
In addition to these and other default applications for various functions, Linux Mint 8 Fluxbox CE also includes the very useful MintInstall, and (unique to the Mint Fluxbox Edition), mintConfig:
MintConfig is a nifty everything-in-one-place graphical control panel for this environment, which conveniently puts everything together for you. I still tend to prefer configuring my Fluxbox by hand, editing the files with a text editor, but if you're not that sort, this release saw fit to make life a little easier on some of you by including a number of well-established graphical tools to manage your Fluxbox menu and keybindings and other settings. They're not really my cup of tea, but I have used them and they certainly seem to work fine in this implementation.

You may have had a good experience with this distro installed, but it is horrible as a live cd. It could be the worst distro I have ever used.
I was anticipating a good experience but I was totally disappointed. It took almost 30 minutes to load and when it did apps were less than cooperative.
Even though the MD5 matched I thought perhaps it was a bad iso burn. I downloaded it again and burned it again using K3b.
The same results. It just wasn't worth the effort when there are so many distros better than Mint anyway. I then tried both burns on 2 other computers with the same results.
This was my experience. Can't speak for anyone else.
30 minutes to boot Mint fluxbox? Some mistake here I'm afraid. You don't supply any details of the hardware involved, but either it is broken or the CD you are using is. Or maybe some obscure networking thing if a network is involved. No problems here with a ThinkPad R51 or a generic desktop with 2.8GHz Celeron. You are not by any chance a Mint-hater with an axe to grind?
Not a mint hater at all. I was prepared to like it. If you read my comments I tried it on multiple computers and burned the iso more than once.
I am an experienced Linux user so I don't make these comments lightly. There has to be room for criticism, or how can a distro grow.
I am glad others are having good luck. I am just relating my experience.
This is actually very possible. there's been a lot of problems on some machines with some versions of ubuntu and derivitaves taking forever to boot. the problem i'm meaning are when the boot process stays at some point, can't remember exactly what it was something about crypto discs i think for a very very long time. some people have even said it takes an hour or more. but also, when it happens, usually if you add noapic nolapic to the boot options it'll boot fine.
Very nice review indeed, thumbs up for the particularity 🙂 I would like to suggest to you to try Crunchbang, as I noticed you're quite a fan of minimalistic *box wm-s – it's using openbox and in my opinion, is one, if not the one best distro, using *box as default window manager.
Nice review. Almost exactly mirrors my experience. I've been using it for a couple of weeks and the only negative so far is Sylpheed. I think I'll follow your experience and go back to Thunderbird. I'm using a netbook and haven't had any problems with it. It reminds me a bit of Crunchbang but I like Mint Fluxbox better — probably a matter of finding the choices the developers made match my preferences more closely.

worst Linux experience ever!
I agree. It wasn't anything I would use again.
I am judging it on the live cd. I did not install it
Thanks for an interesting review.
I've been using Mint KDE for a while on my laptop, but want to try something a bit lighter for my netbook (Acer Aspire One). This seems to fit the bill, so I intend to grab a copy and have a play.
The netbook is currently dual booting OpenSUSE 11.2 and XP. It will be interesting to compare this version of Mint with SUSE. Version 11.2 runs surprisingly well on such modest hardware, although some minor lag kicks in with desktop effects enabled.
I'm really pleased with OpenSUSE, so this version of Mint will have to be very good to convince me to hop over to it.
RE: Thunar: "2. An option to disable the delete confirmation dialog…"
Mine doesn't do this, so you must be able to configure it — I must have done it too long ago to remember..
But I do know how to:
… bypass the "Trash" entirely
Make a custom action called "Destroy"; have it call ~/bin/thunar-destroy.sh %F and paste the following into said file:
begin file
# a script for thunar custom action
# destroys all selected files and folders
# terminate each list entry with a hard return
TERMLIST=`echo "$@" | sed 's/ \//\n\//g'`
# Remember the old list/string terminator
# tell bash that lists are terminated with a hard return
# confirm
zenity –question –ok-label=Destroy! –cancel-label=Preserve! –title="ARE YOU SURE?" –text="$TERMLIST\n will be DESTROYED!\n\nThis cannot be undone!" &&
#with progress whizzy for long processes
(for i in $TERMLIST; do
sudo rm -r "$i"
done) | zenity –progress –auto-close –auto-kill –pulsate –text="WORKING…"
# Restore old list terminator
end file
Beware that the above may have linebreaks inserted by the comments software. Just the stuff between the equal signs.
Make the file executable, and you should now be able to destroy files.
Remove the "sudo" if you don't have your permissions as lax as mine. You'll need to install zenity.

BBC news has reported the discovery of a cache of previously unknown letters by Mary Shelley. The find came while Professor Nora Crook of Anglia Ruskin University was researching the holdings of a public records office in Essex, UK. The discovery of the letters, addressed to Horace Smith and his daughter Eliza, was quite by accident, according to Crook. A brief extract from the BBC article explains Crook's account of the find:
"I had an idea that an anonymous review of a book by Miss Crumpe might be by Mary Shelley."
That idea turned out to be wrong but the search took her to the Essex Record Office's online archive.
It was while looking at documents there that she came across a letter from Shelley joking her father was "half in love" with Miss Crump.
"I knew immediately that the phrase had to come from an unpublished letter—and there turned out to be more," she added.
The full article is available here.

Socca (Farinata) - Blue Monday
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...I suspect that many of you are already familiar with socca, the warm and savory crepe sold by street vendors in Nice and Liguria. While made from identical ingredients, Ligurians refer to the chickpea pizza they share with the French as farinata. Whatever you choose to call them, these large ungainly pancakes are addictive. They've also shed their working class image and, with newfound cache, are now attracting more sophisticated eaters to their ranks of devotees. While they're usually eaten out of hand, they are also wonderful when served as an accompaniment to drinks or with a light salad. Because they are baked, socca are easier to make than standard crepes or pancakes. They contain just four ingredients and are oven ready as soon as the batter has been mixed. So why aren't more people eating them? Not everyone has access to chickpea flour, and among those who do, there is an impatience that demands instantly perfect results. That rarely happens with socca. You have to experiment with timing and consistency and that can be frustrating. You probably won't want to photograph your first attempts with these pancakes, but your results will be wonderfully edible. Experts debate the correct ratio of water to flour. Most favored is the one-to-one ratio that is featured in Mark Bittman's recipe, which you can find here. I prefer the two-to-one ratio, and, by default, the recipe developed by Patricia Wells because I like thin socca. Whichever recipe you use, be forewarned that you'll need a skillet that is ovenproof and at least 12-inches in diameter. I actually use a 15-inch paella pan to cook mine. The socca should be served warm from the oven with a light sprinkling of sea salt and a good grind of black pepper. It should be thick and moist enough to fold and it can be cut or torn into serving sized portions. I really think you'll this and, if you have never had socca, I hope you'll give it a try. Here's the recipe.
Socca (Farinata)...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite courtesy of Patricia Wells
2/3 cup chick pea flour
1-1/3 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1) Center a rack in oven. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2) In a bowl, whisk together flour, water, salt, and 2 tablespoons of oil to form a thin crepe-like batter.
3) Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil into a large (12 to 15-inch) pan and brush to evenly distribute oil. Place oiled pan in the oven and heat for 5 minutes.
4) Remove pan from the oven. Pour batter into the pan, swirling to evenly distribute batter. Return pan to oven and bake until socca is bubbly, colored a deep golden brown and evenly dotted with little crater-like holes, about 18 minutes. Remove from oven, and sprinkle generously with the pepper and coarse salt. Use a metal scraper to scrape the crepe into raggedly shards. Serve warm. Yield: 8 servings.

My fist taste of the socca was in a Nice market years ago. The yellow crepe was almost gone when I saw it offered by the lady vendor in a loud voice. A minute later a boy in a bicycle brought another huge socca for the lady to sell again. It tasted fine but I enjoyed the visual aspect of it more. Thank you for making this Mary, It really brought back pleasant memories of France.

Mary!!!! We love farinita and ate it often when we lived in Italy, buying it at a small take out place where we also bought squares of pizza! I have been looking for a recipe and this is it! Your farinata looks exactly like what we enjoyed in Italy. Thanks for a great recipe!

I have only found this in one location in old Nice (have been there 4 times) and got to try it only once. It was cooked in a wood burning oven and that added a gorgeous rustic smokiness to the flavour. I had no idea the ingredients were so simple. I will have to refer back to my photos. There were definitely toppings on these. Several. And some had herbs and spices in them. I have never had them in Northern Italy... but was so sad to see that they are now so hard to find in Nice.
I really appreciate this recipe! Chickpea flour is everywhere in Canada. All major grocery stores have it, and we are also dotted with independent Indian grocers who also carry it. I love using it in a variety of things; it is so good for us.
Mary - this is definitely on my list.
Funny how I am so drawn to all of your sweet posts and the last few I scrolled through are all savoury. I am drawn to them, too - but most are " too exotic" for Vanja...

POETRY DISPATCH No. 373 | May 13, 2012
Mother's Day Poems
Charlie Rossiter, Ralph Murre, Donna Balfe
my mother, my mountain
standing on you
eyes fixed on far horizons
how could I know
back then
you were there
Charlie Rossiter
it was tricky
the way she loved us
since yardsticks
were routinely
over our backsides
Ralph Murre
You stand between me and the sun,
A gorgeous cloud that casts a chill shadow.
Soon you will be gone.
Wind whipping you into white feathers
The sky swept clean.
I am rock, not water
And do not give way to winds.
But hold fast
Waiting to be drenched
In the milky light of morning.
Donna Balfe
EDITOR'S NOTE: Thanks to everyone for the Mother's Day poetry that was submitted. Once again both judges were entirely in agreement (almost) as to three favorite poems, as we sifted through all the work (names removed), Both of us picked two of the favorite poems featured above, while the last of the three favorites was the toughest choice, selected from a group of at least four other poems which were equally good, all in the running. Yet…
We weighed again all the factors mentioned in the invitation/description of what constituted a good poem. Finally it came down to the nuts and bolts and spirit of language and words and movement and image–what any poem should attempt to express/suggest in capturing the feeling of the experience.
Once again, many of the poems need just a little fine tuning to find acceptance in online or print publication elsewhere. Others need to be re-thought entirely Work with them.
The only order to the poems printed above is that of a timeline: the order in which they arrived in my computer.
I take a good deal of the blame that some of these poems weren't better. That too many of them were too close to, if not entirely, narrative prose. That I may have led too many poets astray by the harsh but REAL examples I selected…suggesting, alas, either a verbose vernacular or "I hate my mother" poetry absent a real touch. Not that anger, hate, resentment, etc. aren't perfectly acceptable subject matter for Mom but—let there be some sense of music to the lines, the language you employ. I wish now I had featured as an example at least one 'gentler' poem that was not Hallmark sentimental, yet captured an honest sense of mother. Something perhaps like this: —Norbert Blei
In Memoriam M.K.H. (1911-1984)
by Seamus Heaney
When all the others were away at Mass
I was all hers as we peeled potatoes.
They broke the silence, let fall one by one
Like solder weeping off the soldering iron:
Cold comforts set between us, things to share
Gleaming in a bucket of clean water.
And again let fall. Little pleasant splashes
From each other's work would bring us to our senses.
So while the parish priest at her bedside
Went hammer and tongs at the prayers for the dying
And some were responding and some crying
I remembered her head bent towards my head,
Her breath in mine, our fluent dipping knives—
Never closer the whole rest of our lives.

Now with the poor cat.
Now with the shocking koan. Are we involved in Cat slicing? Is Zen a way to cut flesh and bones and marrow of poor and inocent animals? The Bible is also filled with these sacrificial stuff, where brother kills his own brother, where even God allows his Son to perish on the Cross.
Are we a blood-thirsty tradition? I don't think so. The point of Nansen is clear. The whole assembly is dead silent. What is silent : their mouth, their head, their heart? When asked to speak, should they necessarily speak? What is required if anything here? Please dig this. Pick up the knife of investigation and have a go at your joints, life-blood vessels, cut down this blind mass of understanding. What is behind?
So Nansen challenges the assembly. "If you can say a word, I won't cut it? The assembly made no response. Nanzen cut the cat in two". What is cutting the cat? Who is doing it? You see, I often do it, I am a cat-cutter if I look at this being a sharp and witty way to represent to represent dualistic thinking. That's all we do, all day, cutting the world into pieces, cutting others from ourselves, cutting here from now, separating mind and body, looking at things or people being good or bad, great and not so great, going at war everyday from morning to evening and preaching peace with our dead lips. The words of reason, the law of men or gods, they all divide, painfully so reality itself. Killing the cat, everything bleeds.
Cutting is wise, cutting is great, cutting into one is the deepest and real answer. The action that cuts everything, even the cutting itself. How do we cut things into one, how do we behold the sword that slashes things into oneness, or rather into neither one, nor two? In our life, how to manifest this. cutting the cat into life, cutting others into oneself and oneself into others? How to we stop with the slaughter of everything and everyone?
Joshu's answer? What is it? Where do we get the real answer from? Where do we speak from when the world bleeds?
The story goes, a cat died. Every week many animals have to die to feed me. I don't kill them myself. I leave that to others. My family was a family of hunters so I grew up with animal corpses laying in the bathroom, wild rabbits, pigeons, even good cuts of dears and wild bores. I left that karma of killing and worshipping guns behind but I did not leave the karma of killing the world, of cutting reality into pieces. And then looking at the mess and wanting to solve the jigsaw puzzle. Not until I met this path. The path made it so clear that I was the war I wanted to erradicate, I was the quarrel, the fight, the noise, the mess...
So how does this practice makes two into one?

TNB: Outside Reality
The real story of getting real climbing photos is not what you think.
Every great climbing shot hides an even greater story. The waxy-looking climber dressed like a harlequin and crankin' the gnar' on some beautiful, scenic piece of stone eclipses
the savage cluster taking place behind the lens. But that's where the real action is. As climbers, our greatest asset is the ability to accept
enormous risk for very little reward, so you can begin to see why photographing other climbers appeals to many in our tribe.
Climbing photographers have it hard. Get an alpine start, skirt certain death, situate somewhere rare and dangerous, take a shot, miss the shot,
drop a lens, there goes $1,900, spend hours editing photos, make a little money if you're lucky, and listen to every dilettante chode bicker about
whether or not the photo is too "posed" or "Photoshopped."
In terms of suffering forever, this process is almost identically parallel to establishing a new route, where you risk your life and spend time and money
creating something only to have a bunch of dumbass bottom-feeders criticize your hard work. A person must be absolutely insane about climbing to endure
such abuse and deprivation.
I painfully remember the first time I went on a photo shoot, more than five years ago. I'd been working at the magazine for all of two weeks, and we needed
to get some crack-climbing photos for a how-to-climb guide. Out of sheer convenience, Duane hauled then photo editor David Clifford and me, the amateur
climbing model, down to Castle Valley for a long weekend of steak, whisky and desert towers.
Barring the humiliating string of gawky, mechanical photos that were taken of me in grade school, no one had ever deliberately shot my picture. I feel
inept in front of a camera lens, and become a plastic Halloween mask when the shutter snaps. Duane and Cliffy didn't know this about me yet, and graciously
chose to ignore my many glaring features that are unsuited to composing a pleasing image: my faint but unseemly widow's peak (no top-down shots, please),
my amorphous chin (profile shots are out, too), my dark lusterless eyes that swallow up any catch-light as if they're two cosmic black holes in my
face. The goofy haircut. The bad posture. The unibrow. Please, must I go on?
The North Face of Castleton Tower is a beautiful four-pitch crack climb, but we only had business with the first pitch: a nice splitter hand/fist
crack that I was told would shoot great. Duane offered to lead first in order to set up a fixed rope from which he would hang and take illustrative
crack-climbing pics.
Duane is one of those climbing partners that you should never let choose the rack, nor trust when he says that something with potentially catastrophic
consequences will be "fine." Whereas forgetting a harness or rope or any other vital piece of safety equipment would normally cause most people to
head back to the car and try again another day, Duane is merely inconvenienced—nothing a little bit of Okie ingenuity can't solve.
Duane clipped a few pieces of gear to his harness and started jamming up the crack before I had even fished my belay device out of my pack. He placed his
one and only #3 Camalot at about 20 feet and continued up the splitter corner.
Unfortunately for Duane, that #3 would've come in handy over the next uniform stretch of crack. Nevertheless, he pushed on unprotected into the ground-fall
zone. At about 50 feet, the wide hand crack constricted a little and he was able to gingerly set a tipped-out #2. Feeling insecure, and seeing yet
another 15 feet of #3 climbing up ahead, he did something that, I'll admit, probably would never have occurred to me. He down-climbed those hard-won
30 feet, with labored breathing and shoes skating on slippery sandy smears, and retrieved the #3 Camalot. Like a machine, he chugged back up the route, shuffling the #3 with him. I watched all this with my guts in my throat, and imagined how pumped he was from up and down climbing the
5.11 crack, and how that would soon be me. With Duane, though, you never know. He reached the anchors, fixed the rope, rapped down, and with a straight
face, handed me the woefully anemic rack.
"Your turn," he said. Before he had even caught his breath, he was jugging up the fixed line with his camera gear to take position. "Oh," he called down.
"Put on the red shirt! No, the really red one!"
I stared up at the corner, conflicted by a desire to prove myself in front of my new co-workers, the pressure of having come all the way up here for this
sole purpose, and my better sensibilities. Actually, I was more nervous about having my photo taken than I was about the sparse gear. Cliffy put me
on belay and I plunged upward, shuffling the #3 with me. I felt the camera lens penetrate my flesh like ultrasound, and became tenser, squeezed tighter
and got more pumped.
I remember the anxiety, but more so, the confusion: I was unclear as to what my role was, to fire the pitch onsight, or to provide Duane with a few usable
pictures—hanging, repeating moves, or if need be, posing.
We were, after all, here for "work," and even though it wasn't "real" work, it also wasn't the kind of climbing you do with friends on Saturday (unless
you're a narcissistic professional who is perverted enough to get off on that sort of thing).
I soon became acutely aware that I was doing the very thing that I could see myself—in bitter-ranting-smarty-pants-editor mode—criticizing.
Yet here I was: the guy doing something dangerous for the camera.
It was cruel and confusing, and I soon grew weary and hung from the #3.
"I wouldn't do that," Duane advised, looking at the 50 feet of rope running free below me, straight down to Cliffy's ATC.
"I don't have a choice," I said, brutally flash pumped. We both laughed.
I dogged up the rest of the pitch, and thankfully, Duane took a few usable images. The shot that printed in the how-to-climb guide shows me jamming; I'm
looking up and appear to be sticking my tongue out, smiling and having a good time. In fact, mine is a look of sheer terror. I know because I have
another photo of me making the same face while riding the pig on El Cap, delicately clipped to a pair of ascenders and experiencing that helpless gut-sinking
sensation of the rope scraping over sharp granite edges as I swung into space a thousand feet up in the air. Apparently, I look like I'm having fun
when I'm scared shitless. (Maybe that's why I like climbing.)
The caption that ran with the photo read:
Perfect hand jams, on the perfect route, on the perfect tower. The North Face of Castleton Tower (5.11b). In a corner crack such as this, don't get so focused on the jams you neglect to notice the myriad face holds that will help you unweight those taxing jams.
I wondered what people would think. Would they assume I was sending, which I wasn't, or see the rope draped hauntingly down the wall, not clipped to any
pro but the one #3 by my hand, and think I had chosen to run it out like that?
I'll admit that this article was spurred by a few reckless comments made in Outside magazine's latest photo issue, which singled out climbing
photography for being particularly staged—saying that because ropes often have to be rigged in advance for the photographer to get into a prime
position, and the climber repeats a route for the camera, climbing photography is a "re-creation," implying that it's somehow fake.
We live in a brutally cynical age. Most politicians, athletes and icons in our society have turned out to be mangy, crooked bastards. In this context,
it's not surprising that non-climbers, like our fellow editors at Outside, (and many climbers, too) see well-lit, perfect, sublime shots of
climbers in amazing positions, they suspect total graphic chicanery.
I have actually witnessed the making of a truly fake and posed climbing shot. The photographer put this poor girl—an attractive, fit blonde—in
new climbing gear and a sports bra that didn't fit. She was just getting into the sport and didn't really know her way around a route. Still, she tried
to lead up a bolted 5.12, but was more or less unable to do a single real-looking move. The best shot was of her hanging underneath a bolt clipped
overhead. The rope was taut, holding her on the wall and awkwardly pulling her harness swami up to her chest. She looked like a gazelle in roller skates
with a hockey stick. It was the most unflattering, fake climbing image I've ever seen. Luckily, those photos never saw the light of day. A fake photo
that succeeds in deceiving the viewer is, in all likelihood, harder to get than a real climbing shot.
Photography presents a telling and dissonant interplay of three distinct entities: the photographer who creates an artifact or visual interpretation of
a moment, the subject immersed in his or her own reality, and finally, the viewer of the final image, who inevitably brings personal judgments, inferences
and conclusions to the artifact. The photograph is a symbiosis of these three parts, through which a story, often with the help of a caption, emerges.
Photography, like journalism and art, is only as compelling as the story it tells. And the goal of every good story is not to deceive, or to recreate reality
perfectly, but to illuminate some underlying truth. How different would that photo of me on Castleton be if the caption had read:
Andrew Bisharat desecrates a classic climb with his chicken-shit whimpering. If he were any more of a sell-out, he'd rival the many baby boomer bands that have sold their anti-establishment music to car companies and iPod commercials. But check out that hand-jamming technique!
I recently asked a half-dozen of the sport's best photographers about the importance of a caption to climbing photography. Interestingly, all said that
a photo should be able to speak for itself and stand alone; however, they also admitted that, at a minimum, the name of the climber and the name, grade
and location of the route should be mentioned. This a balance that all climbing magazines struggle with.
Greg Epperson brought up one climbing periodical that has attempted to offer "full disclosure" in all its captions—in his eyes, to its detriment.
"The irritating 'full disclosure' photo captions were usually run-on, unimportant side notes that never made me think differently of the photos," Epperson
I also discovered that sometimes the best stories are the ones of photos that were missed.
"It feels horrible," says the climber/photographer Boone Speed about missing a shot. "Especially in climbing, where sometimes people are risking their
safety. Chuck Fryberger wanted me to shoot him soloing a 40-foot 5.13 in Hueco, an old John Sherman toprope. He had it wired." Unfortunately, Speed
didn't nail the shot and Fryberger had to repeat the solo. "I thought his girlfriend was going to kill me. That was over four years ago, and I haven't
missed anything of consequence since."
Jim Thornburg recalls missing a shot years ago at Fremont Canyon:
"I had my camera trained on a guy who fell off a route, ripped ALL of his gear, flew past his friend at a hanging belay, and back-flopped in the river—a
65-foot fall! It was the most spectacular thing I've seen, and I watched the whole thing through the viewfinder and didn't snap a single frame. I was
too horrified."
In my case, was it a deception or, worse, a lie, to have not mentioned that I wasn't sending the splitter on the North Face of Castleton? Or is
a photo sometimes just a photo?
Like every good climbing shot, that photo told a story, but not the greater story. In this world of lying and fakery there still remain instances of truth
that cannot be faked, and the much-maligned climbing image is a good example of this paradox. Behind the lights and setup is always a human being—and
moves, exposure, pro and height. I'd say that my experience on Castleton was as real as any climbing experience I've had.

Why do we need brick-and-mortar bookstores? Scott Turow, the novelist and president of the Authors Guild, gives an often neglected reason in this quote:
"Marketing studies consistently show that readers are far more adventurous in their choice of books when in a bookstore than when shopping online. In bookstores, readers are open to trying new genres and new authors: it's by far the best way for new works to be discovered."

I've always struggled to manage all my bibliography and citations, either for work (I'm a Biologist) or for Linux resources. Proprietary softwares are expensive, open source applications have limitations. As a result, I was not using anything particular, from real papers in boxes to browser bookmarks and text files full of references. Quite a pain, totally useless. This morning, a colleague pointed Zotero at me. And now I'm happy :)
Zotero is a firefox extension (also available for Netscape and Flock) working on Linux, Mac and Windows. The citations can be used offline. When browsing a page where Zotero can get the citation data, a little icon appears in the url field:
Most important, Zotero can export a bibliography to OpenOffice.org. On gutsy, no problem installing and testing the OpenOffice extension.
You can choose a standard formating style for the citations, and a custom style is in development. Sooooo nice for a scientist (for other people as well, but I cannot tell from experience)!
You have to have firefox open so that Zotero runs to create the bibliography in OpenOffice. So far, this is the only small limitation I see. As I said, I'm happy :)

I bought a travertine dining and a coffee table from Dolphin & Flamingo. Price and Quality: I'm a designer buying some vintage furniture for my home; I've been very serious about the quality and price, as vintage furniture is usually overpriced. I shopped around, and the furniture price of Dolphin & Flamingo is very very fair. I just received my table; the quality exceeded my expectation, and they look more beautiful than the advertised photos. Since travertine is a stone material with many holes, the dining table's top face is polished very well to prevent dirty stuff from getting stuck in the gaps; the live edge on the side also adds a natural touch to the table. The coffee table has a unique design; My husband and I love both of the tables! Shipping: The seller is in Florida, while I'm in Boston, and I was told that the dining table weighs over 600lbs and is also very fragile. I was a little worried before the tables got delivered. However, the shipping company the seller is using is very responsible and nice; they treated my table very gently. After purchasing, it takes less than a month until my tables are safely delivered. My own experience and thoughts: Before I found Dolphin and Flamingo, I actually had a terrible experience; I bought a similar travertine table from Instagram(the seller has charish account), and I paid in full. After about a month's wait, I found that that seller was still selling my table, but at three times the higher price, the seller was very rude, and I almost lost my money, which was thousands of dollars. I'm sharing my experience because I hope my experience could help others from getting into this situation especially buying online for valuable items; sometimes, it is very difficult to know if the online seller is reliable. From my experience, Dolphin and Flamingo is a trustable resource, and they have a store in Florida. I will definitely buy from them again.

Excellent experience working with Dolphin & Flamingo. Their selection is great - awesome quality pieces. The furniture I purchased arrived clean and in excellent condition, and the delivery driver was nice and kept us updated on timing the day of the delivery. I highly recommend this shop!

K-SPACE: Black Sky
Here we leave the realm of music altogether. The three performers, Tim Hodgkinson, Ken Hyder and Gendos Chamzyryn are on the same record but they seem orientated inward; where most improvisation works toward the care of a sum; Black Sky seems to work more toward what Cage claimed to be after in his attempts to �let the sounds be themselves�. He pursued that mechanically, with instructions and stopwatches and the vain hope that performers wouldn�t follow their natural inclination to entrainment (to get in synch with, be pulled along by..). K-Space do it emotionally - through some species of discipline, I assume. The result is fascinating, suspended, incomprehensible. Inspired cover art, L

Gaza cleric calls violation of Israel truce sinful
- The fatwa, or religious edict, accords a religious legitimacy to the truce
- The truce put an end to an Israeli offensive against Gaza
- The fatwa could justify any act by Gaza's government to enforce truce
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — A leading Islamic cleric in the Gaza Strip has ruled it a sin to violate the recent cease-fire between Israel and the Hamas militant group that governs the Palestinian territory — according a religious legitimacy to the truce and giving the Gaza government strong backing to enforce it.
The fatwa, or religious edict, was issued late Saturday by Suleiman al-Daya, a cleric respected by both ultra-conservative Salafis and Hamas. Salafi groups oppose political accommodations with Israel.
"Honoring the truce, which was sponsored by our Egyptian brethren, is the duty of each and every one of us. Violating it shall constitute a sin," the fatwa read.
The truce, which was struck Wednesday to bring an end to an eight-day Israeli offensive against Gaza militants who fired rockets into Israel, remains fragile, however, and details beyond the initial cease-fire have not yet been worked out. The fighting killed 169 Palestinians, including dozens of civilians, and six Israelis.
The spokesman for Gaza's Hamas government, Taher Nunu, told reporters Sunday that Hamas is committed to the truce.
"The government reaffirmed its blessing to the agreement sponsored by Cairo and emphasized that it will work to the internal Palestinian consensus and the supreme national interest," he said, following a government meeting.
Hamas demands that Israel and Egypt lift all restrictions on the movement of goods and people in and out of the Palestinian territory. The restrictions have been imposed since the Islamists seized the territory in 2007.
Israel has eased its full-fledged blockade in recent years, and some goods enter Gaza through smuggling tunnels under the border with Egypt. But Israel has continued to impose strict restrictions on exports and the import of construction materials, which has severely hampered the development of Gaza's battered economy.
Israel is expected to link a significant easing of the blockade to Hamas's willingness to stop smuggling weapons into Gaza and producing them there. A top Hamas official said Saturday that the group wouldn't stop arming itself, suggesting that talks on a new border deal would not go smoothly.
Nunu also told reporters that the offensive inflicted more than $1.2 billion in damage on the Gaza economy, including damage to buildings, infrastructure, agriculture and trade. Israel continues to restrict the inflow of building materials, but Nunu said that talks on lifting those limitations are to begin in meetings scheduled to start in Cairo on Monday.
The government in Gaza has no estimate yet on how long the reconstruction will take. Gaza only recently concluded rebuilding most of the buildings and infrastructure damaged during Israel's 2009 war in the territory.

Blind Items Revealed
January 8, 2014
This A list mostly television actor who doesn't really work right now has a lot of work friends. Lots of them. Outside of work or a red carpet though he has very few friends. He is just not a very likable guy. In his current situation he is becoming even more unlikable and his few friends say they have been cut off from him too. Three years ago our actor would go out once a week to a friend's house and they would play cards and drink and smoke cigars. This would last until the middle of the night. Two years ago it was reduced to once a month and now it is about once a quarter and the actor has to be home by midnight and is capped on the number of drinks he is allowed and can't smoke at all. His current significant other has worked hard to cut off everyone who was in his life before and substituted them with people she knows and people who can help her career. A friend of the actor says that our actor goes to the store three or four times a day and walks the dog three or four times a day just to get out of the house. he also is sneak drinking whenever he can and one of the two stores he frequents keeps a bottle of whiskey behind the counter for the actor so he can come in and have a few swallows before he has to get home. He is losing his once thick hair and looks ten years older than he did a few years ago and his friends think his significant other is going to drive the guy to an early grave.

Installing a security system can be costly, but not installing one could cost you even more in the long run. Whether you live in an apartment or in a house in Point O Woods, having a professionally installed and monitored security system is highly beneficial. Point O Woods residences need to be prepared for incidents that could potentially lead to loss or destruction of their homes and possessions. The top five major benefits of having a professionally installed and monitored security system are as follows:
- Intruders: Homes in Point O Woods without security systems are more likely to be targeted by intruders. Having a professionally installed and monitored security system in place helps provide families with enough warning to get them outside the home to a safe location if an intruder were to come inside the house. The alarm system also notifies the authorities in the event of a break in.
- Fires: Monitored security systems offer an early warning system to fire outbreaks in a household. Not only will a monitored security system warn the home occupants of smoke in the house, but they will also identify the source of the heat and contact the authorities.
- Carbon Monoxide: Carbon Monoxide is colorless odorless gas that is a by-product of combustion fumes which if not detected can be fatal. Leaks of carbon monoxide can be discovered by CO detectors that can be purchased alone or as a part of a monitored security system. The benefits of having a carbon monoxide monitored security system is that it provides emergency service dispatch as well as calling the paramedics to help treat carbon monoxide poison symptoms. The faster a person can receive medical treatment, the less severe the poisoning symptoms will be.
- Save on Homeowners insurance: In Point O Woods, homeowners insurance is a mandatory part of becoming a homeowner in most cases. This type of insurance is designed to cover private homes and possessions from loss or damage that might have occurred to the homeowner. Homes that have installed a monitored security system are generally given a significant discount on the price of insurance.
- Digital Eye: With the latest technology, homeowners are now able to access their security systems through smartphones or computers. This system allows the home security system to be remotely alarmed and disarmed, cameras to be monitored, lights to be turned on and off, motion to be detected, and temperature setting of the house to be changed.
Facts to Consider While Installing a Monitored Security System in Point O Woods
By now, you've probably have come to the conclusion that you need to professionally install a monitored security system in your household. Here are some bonus facts and benefits:
- House fires are one of the leading causes of fatal home injury in Point O Woods.
- Not only do security systems protect family and possessions, but also provide protection for pets.
- Some Monitored Security Systems are equipped with outdoor cameras to allow for homeowners to see who is at their front door without going close to it or even not being home at the time.
- Homes with Monitored Security Systems installed have quicker emergency response time because they directly contact authorities if there has been a trigger to the alarm system.
- Z-wave is the new standard among home monitored security systems. Z-wave devices create a mesh network and thereby eliminate the need for a large antenna and power draw.

Today in the News: Nearly $1 trillion farm bill passes
News to know
The nearly $1 trillion farm bill was approved Tuesday by the Senate and sent to President Barack Obama to be signed into law. The bill sets five years of eating and farming policy in the United States, cutting the food stamp program and increasing spending on farmers markets, CNN reports.
Quote of note
"I remember the time I spoke at a lunchtime Bible study at the Goddard Space Flight Center near Washington. I was thrilled to meet several scientists and engineers who accept the book of Genesis as historical and reject Darwinian evolution. They shared with me that a belief in evolution had nothing to do with their work on the Hubble Space Telescope. Why should our perspective about origins be censored?" — Ken Ham, as written in an opinion piece published on CNN.com, ahead of his debate on the origins of life with TV personality Bill Nye tonight at the Creation Museum in Petersburg, K.Y. The debate will be streamed live at 7 p.m. EDT on the news website.

[UPDATE Wednesday 11:00 am CT: This story has been edited to make clear that this new site is an unauthorized clone of the old site and does not involve any of the principals of the original isoHunt.]
Less than two weeks ago, IsoHunt, the notorious search engine site for BitTorrent files, agreed to shut down and pay $110 million in a settlement with the Motion Pictures of America Association. The site even shut down a day early as a way to avoid being part of an online archive.
But now, what appears to be a cloned version of the site (available at isohunt.to and isohunt.ee) has emerged. Whois information on both domains turns up no contact information. However, online records show that the new site is hosted in Australia.
Chip Parker, a former isoHunt admin, says that the old isoHunt is gone for good.
"Some random 3rd party ripping off isohunt.com's HTML has no bearing on the fact that both the database and the .torrent files once stored by isoHunt are gone forever," he told Ars.
On Tuesday, TorrentFreak reported on the anonymous creators of the new site.
"IsoHunt has been a great part of the torrent world for more than a decade. It's a big loss to everyone who used it over the years. Media corporations don't like innovation or competition, and isoHunt's fate is one of the examples of how they deal with it," isohunt.to's creators told TorrentFreak.
"IsoHunt can definitely be called a file-sharing icon. People got used to it, and they don't want to simply let it go. We want those people to feel like being at home while visiting isohunt.to. The main goal is to restore the website with torrents and provide users with the same familiar interface."
Ars would love to speak with the creators of isohunt.to, if they're reading this.

Diamond Dirt: Michael Young's addition to Philly makes NL East tight
It's not even baseball season yet and already the National League East looks like it's going to be a very close race.
And it all comes on the heels of the trade the Philadelphia Phillies made with the Texas Rangers to acquire veteran infielder Michael Young.
With Young's addition to the Phillies, they are very solid with veteran presence, experience, determination and most importantly leadership. You're not going to see any other infielder work harder than Michael Young, and that's the honest truth. This guy does everything to be prepared for any position he'll have to play. He prepares physically and mentally, and what makes him stand out above all of the other utility infielders out there is that there's not one position he's better at than the other. Michael Young is as tough as nails, nose to the grindstone defensive player at every position he plays.
The way things look right now, Young is going to be the team's every day third baseman — a position the Philadelphia fans will very much appreciate him at — however if he's needed, whether it be a situational thing, because of someone else's injury or whatever, don't be surprised to see Young spend some innings at shortstop, second, or first. The only thing he can't do in the infield is pitch and catch, but if Phillies Manager Charlie Manuel has no one else to turn to, I'm confident Young will do it with full potential, athleticism and grit. Young works hard in the field and at the plate and Philadelphia fans are going to notice that immediately.
At the plate, Young is aggressive and so selective he doesn't go down without a fight — something else the Philadelphia fans will appreciate.
Mix that will and desire in with guys like Ryan Howard, Cliff Lee (who's cooled off a bit, but still has impact), Roy Halladay, Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley, and you have a team to fear throughout 2013.
Washington and Atlanta are also competitive favorites in the NL East (Washington more than Atlanta) which is why this is going to be a tight, three-team race to the title and a postseason berth. The Mets and Marlins aren't expected to do much of anything.
By the way, another reason to be excited about Philadelphia, is the coaching staff. Not only has Manuel turned the franchise around with a World Series Championship and postseason appearances, the team has brought in former stars Ryne Sandberg and Wally Joyner.
Hit a ground ball against the Phillies this year and you might as well just head back to the dugout because with guys like Sandberg and Joyner on the staff the infielders are going to be very solid.

So I have been toying with the idea of making this blog private or deleting it forever. There are a few things that I would like sharing but maybe in the next post.
On other thoughts .. We went to a fancy restaurant the other week , to have dinner but I felt that there was something amiss in the Ambiance of the place . You know these days maybe because of the economy or something anywhere you go instead of the usual Ketchup bottles , they serve you with these little sachets. Have you noticed that..
Now I love tomato Ketchup , I remember in school when I was in Patiala their use to be a new place called "Pik a Chik" that had opened near 22 number Phatak (railway crossing), and in those days these fast food places were the IN thing, everyone wanted to be seen at those places, The guy who owned the place knew one of my Aunts. so me and a few friends would go there for food but along with the food we would finish off a bottle of ketchup .. It makes me smile remembering the guy telling my Aunt that its fine we come to eat food an all but we are not profit customers for him as we eat so much ketchup..
Anyway back to this restaurant, as I entered what do i see there was NO tomato sauce on the table. Now this was very awkward as now I have to ask for the tomato sauce.. my friend says don't ask for the sauce.. I said I have to order the tomato sauce as i have just ordered some chips..
You can't eat chips without sauce it's too dry
so I called the waitress very calmly but she looked as if she has had an argument with someone already or probably fought with her boy-friend
"Excuse me is there any ketchup in the building.." and I smiled
she looked at me as if I asked for something dreadful , she walks to the kitchen and comes with this small little cup of ketchup .. such small .. oh yes JUST TWO chip worth in it
and walked away
I stopped her there .. and said excuse me wait there .. I took a sip out of the cup .. and said yess
"This is nice, Yes I would like a BOTTLE PLEASE "…
They say laughter is the best medicine, so here is a joke for all of you . I went to my doctor and asked him , I have not been able to sleep lately, so the doctor says don't have coffee or tea before sleeping
and have a glass of wine .. to relax you .. I like that, how nice of the doctor
so Now that is what I do, nowadays have a glass of wine just before I sleep, But IT is not always easy you know ..
someday's I am already VERY DRUNK …
